I see it too! I doubt it is actually a face, but it is still rather creepy! Another excellent shot, Motts.

It seems like a building lives and thrives off it's
inhabitants and when they have all gone the
building dies a little

i know the human eye is trained to pick out faces but there is no way that, that is just the sun.

You are great Motts!

Kristiara ! Perfect comment!
"And you will float too..."

OMG! All children nightmares!

It looks like all the brick layers beneath the roof are darker as if recently under water.

But that doesn't seem possible given the much lower height of the surrounding outer walls. If those bricks are actually that saturated with water I'll bet you could pretty much knock that whole thing down with one well placed sissy kick.

Naked footprints... very appropriate for this setting. Normally the human footprints we find are shoe prints, unless on the beach or something.

It isn't difficult to imagine a scenerio in which the staff abandoned the place but left the patients behind to fend for themselves.

Thus you have half naked crazies wandering the halls while the place crumbles to ruins around them [assuming a few of them manage to survive unassisted that is].

Either that or we are all wrong and those are just hot and cold water pipes where they may have had shut off valves in an easily accessible spot at one time. All the brass or coper valves and pipes that could be stripped out would have been picked clean by thieves long ago to be sold to a scap yard, probably for dope money.

The ends of those pipes look like the male nozzles for female hydraulic hose ends. Must have been a fancy dumb-waiter not the old fashioned hand pulley kind.

Judging by the reddish color of the broken end as well as the texture of the plastic the brush appears to me made of bakelite which is sought after by antique collectors.

awesome shot. and the dark spot in the centre of the light looks like pacman x)

I'm thankful for people like you Motts, who go into these places and take photos for the rest of us to see.

I love these photos but I wouldn't last more than a second if I tried to go in there.

Thank you =]

Those greens are simply amazing.

beautiful shot. I think this would make an amazing desktop.

wow. I would never feel safe enough to stand in there, scared it would collapsing on me

amazing work
